Farmers send ripe coffee berries to the processing plant in exchange for cash. After the treatment plant selects the available berries, they are directly exposed to the sun on the scaffolding and are turned every 2-3 hours in the first few days to prevent overfermentation. After four to six weeks of sun exposure, depending on the weather and temperature, the workers will scrape off the outer pulp with a machine and transport it to addis for storage. Usually, sun-treated beans are stored in the form of shell beans, and they are not shelled until they are exported to ensure the quality of raw beans.
The coffee beans here have tropical fruit, citrus notes, orange fruit, strawberry flavor, firm taste, acidity and delicacy.
